The stacked air permeable hanger includes a hook for hanging and a shoulder support extending from the hook for hanging to be inclined to opposite sides, respectively, to support shoulder parts of a top. A through part having a size that is large enough for a hook for hanging of a hanger of the same kind to be inserted into the through part is formed at a central portion of the shoulder support to pass through the shoulder support upwards and downwards and an accommodation space for receiving at least a portion of the shoulder support of the hanger of the same kind is formed on an inner surface of the shoulder support. A plurality of uplifted parts are formed on an upper surface of the shoulder support.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a stacked hanger, and more particularly, to stacked hangers that may be stacked on one another to be easily preserved or carried.

2. Description of the Prior Art

As illustrated in FIG. 1, a conventionally frequently used hanger includes shoulder supports 12 for supporting shoulder parts of a top, a neck part 13 formed between the shoulder supports 12, and a hook 11 for hanging attached to the neck part 13 to hang clothes.

However, according to the hanger, because parts in which the shoulder supports 12, the neck parts 13, and the hooks 11 for hanging overlap each other are not provided when a plurality of hangers are to be preserved while being stacked, the entire volume thereof becomes too large so that the hangers cannot be easily arranged and cleared up due to the too large preservation area, and accordingly, transportation costs increase due to the large volume when the hangers are to be carried.

In consideration of the problems, as illustrated in FIG. 2, Korean Utility Model No. 1994-0005206 suggests a hanger having a structure in which an accommodation chamber 14 that may accommodate a hooking member 20 is formed at an upper central portion of a hanging member 10 and a rotary member 21 formed at a lower portion of the hooking member 20 may be freely rotated in the accommodation chamber 14.

According to the utility model, when the hangers are to be stacked on one another, the hooking member 20 is accommodated in the accommodation chamber 14 while the rotary member 21 formed under the hooking member 20 is rotated in the accommodation chamber 14 so that the remaining hangers except for the uppermost hanger may be stacked as illustrated in FIG. 3, and accordingly, many hangers may be easily preserved in a narrow space and may be easily transported. However, in order to accommodate the hooking member 20 in the accommodation chamber 14, a complex structure for rotating the rotary member 21 formed under the hooking member 20 in the accommodation chamber 14, and accordingly, production costs of the hanger increases. Further, when a plurality of hangers are stacked, the volumes, except for the height of the hooking members 20 of the hangers, do not decrease so that there is a limit in substantially achieving the object of reducing volume.

Further, the conventional hanger has a limit in permeability so that the clothes have to be disposed due to fungi or the like if the clothes are preserved for a long time.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has been made in an effort to solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides a stacked air permeable hanger, by which clothes may be preserved while the original shape of the clothes may be maintained for a long time even in a bad condition, such as a wet weather, by maximizing air permeability when the clothes are used and may be preserved in a minimum space when the clothes are not used.

In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a stacked air permeable hanger including a hook for hanging and a shoulder support extending from the hook for hanging to be inclined to opposite sides, respectively, to support shoulder parts of a top, wherein a through part having a size that is large enough for a hook for hanging of a hanger of the same kind to be inserted into the through part is formed at a central portion of the shoulder support to pass through the shoulder support upwards and downwards and an accommodation space for receiving at least a portion of the shoulder support of the hanger of the same kind is formed on an inner surface of the shoulder support, wherein a plurality of uplifted parts are formed on an upper surface of the shoulder support, and wherein a plurality of air vents are formed in each of the uplifted parts and an air vent groove is formed in the adjacent air vents along a lengthwise direction.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an air vent groove may be further formed in each of the air vent grooves in a transverse direction thereof.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of bosses may be arranged in each of the uplifted parts.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, upper ends of the bosses formed in each of the uplifted parts may be oriented toward the hook for hanging.

According to the present invention, clothes may be preserved while the original shape of the clothes may be maintained for a long time even in a bad condition, such as a wet weather, by maximizing air permeability when the clothes are used and may be preserved in a minimum space when the clothes are not used.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In a description of the present invention, known functions or configurations will not be described to make the essence of the present invention clear. Throughout the specification, the same or like reference numerals denote the same or like elements.

FIGS. 4 to 9 illustrate the present invention. FIG. 4 is a perspective view schematically illustrating an entire external appearance of an air permeable hanger according to the present invention. FIG. 5 is an enlarged view illustrating portion A of the hanger illustrated in FIG. 4. FIG. 6 is a view illustrating portion A illustrated in FIG. 5 from another angle. FIG. 7 is a longitudinal sectional view of portion A illustrated in FIG. 5. FIG. 8 is a longitudinal sectional view of bosses formed in an uplifted part of the air permeable hanger according to the present invention. FIG. 9 is a view illustrating a state in which the air permeable hangers according to the present invention are stacked.

First, referring to FIG. 1, the air permeable hanger according to the present invention includes a hook 100 for hanging and a shoulder support 200 extending from the hook 100 for hanging to be inclined to opposite sides, respectively, to support shoulder parts of a top.

A through part 300 having a size that is large enough for a hook 100 for hanging of a hanger of the same kind to be inserted into the through part 300 is formed at a central portion of the shoulder support 200 to pass through the shoulder support 200 upwards and downwards, and the hook 100 for hanging protrudes and extends upwards from one side of a periphery of the through part 300.

Further, an accommodation space is formed on an inner surface of the shoulder support 200 along a lengthwise direction of the inner surface, and an upper surface of the shoulder support 200 of the hanger of the same kind is received and stacked in the accommodation space.

The hook 100 for hanging is a part for hanging the hanger on a nail fixedly attached to a wall surface or other hangers, and may be integrally formed of a material that is the same as the material of the shoulder support 200 on one side of the periphery of the through part 300 or may be formed of a material that is different from the material of the shoulder part 200 to extend and protrude upwards from one side of the periphery of the through part 300.

The above-configured stacked hanger according to the present invention enables a plurality of hangers to be stacked on one another by using the through part 300 formed at the central portion of the shoulder support 200 and the accommodation space formed on a lower surface thereof, and in the stacking process, as illustrated in FIG. 9, because an upper surface of the shoulder support 200 located on a lower hanger is inserted into the accommodation space formed on a lower surface of the shoulder support 200 located on an upper hanger while the hook 100 for hanging located on the lower hanger is inserted into the through part 300 of the upper hanger if the hangers are located the upper side and the lower side and the hook 100 for hanging located in the lower hanger is inserted into the through part 300 of the upper hanger, a plurality of hangers may be stacked to occupy a minimum volume so that many hangers may be conveniently preserved in a narrow space due to the remarkably reduced volume and may be easily carried due to the remarkably reduced volume of all the stacked hangers while the hangers are carried as well.

Referring to FIGS. 5 to 7, in the present invention, a plurality of uplifted parts 210 on an upper surface of the shoulder support 200 are formed in addition to the above configuration. The uplifted parts 210 prevents sliding of a top and maintains clothes in a cleaner condition by bringing a larger amount of air into contact with an inner upper surface of a top by preventing the top from directly contacting the upper surface of the shoulder support 200.

A plurality of air vents 220 are formed in each of the uplifted parts 210. The air vents 220 allows air to contact the top parts supported by the uplifted parts 210 while contacting the uplifted parts 210, that is, improves permeability further, thereby maintaining the original shape of the top more.

Further, in the present invention, an air vent groove 240 is formed in the adjacent air vents 220 along a lengthwise direction, and an air vent groove 240 is further formed in each of the air vent grooves 240 in a transverse direction thereof to help air flow more smoothly in the air vent grooves 240.

In the present invention, as illustrated in FIG. 8, in order to prevent clothes from sliding and falling due to provision of the contact parts of the top only in the uplifted parts 210 formed in the shoulder support 200, bosses 250 are provided on the upper surface of the uplifted parts 210 to prevent the clothes from deviating from the hanger. In the present invention, in order to further prevent the phenomenon, the upper ends of the bosses 250 are oriented toward the hook 100 for hanging.

Due to the additional configuration of the present invention, the top may be preserved for a long time while the top maintains the original shape thereof, particularly, by originally preventing the top from deviating from the hanger while further improving permeability.

Although the embodiments of the present invention has been described, it will be understood by an ordinary person in the art that the present invention may be variously corrected and modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention described in the claims.
